What players say
As an indie dev with a day job, this story about making your art your job, and how audience reception impacts your self-esteem, and a scoop of imposter syndrome, it all spoke to me on a spiritual level Also, immaculate jazz vibes. Recommended for all you creative people

I had a brilliant time. Wonderful music, likeable characters and light-hearted, enjoyable dialogue. I really liked the artistic style. The plot drew me in; it's always a pleasure to be able to experience such down-to-earth stories in games.
Blue Wednesday You play as Morris a jazz pianist of Evans City. The game was enjoyable, I guess many of us can relate to the story, having uninteresting low paid job that will make you feel depressed and forget about your dreams. Or even sometimes having too high expectations for ourselves leading to self destruction. It's ok to take it slow, abandon, go back. Sometimes the only way to find yourself it's to lose...
